The concept of an “in-between-city” (Zwischenstadt) interprets the urban sprawl in Europe as a new, evolving model of urban development, taking the form of urbanized landscapes, which does not correspond with the traditional understanding of urban design. The actual shape of an in-between-city reflects the today’s technology and economy generating new lifestyles: global trends coexist with the locality in a strong relation. The qualification process concordant with the new logic of space creation requires new planning tools. The notion of a slow-suburb, developed on the basis of the agri-hood concept, could be recognized as a new planning category, related to agrarian urbanism. The purpose of introducing the concept of slow city into the planning for metropolitan regions entails addressing the appearing needs firstly, in order to differentiate the metropolitan life style offer, and secondly, to focus on the values represented in the historical suburban relicts, which could be used in the new suburbanization policy. The slow-suburb concept, referring to the research on in-between city, unknown in Poland, addresses the local potentials and the needs.
